Top 10 Best Road Bikes of 2024

Top 10 Best Road Bikes of 2024

Endurance road bikes are more comfortable versions of race-orientated road bikes with the distinguishing features being relaxed geometry, frames tuned to smooth the ride and capacity for wider tires. They’re ideal for sportive and long distance rides where the extra comfort is a valuable benefit.

The sportive bike is not just a euphemism for beginners’ road bike either, the industry is taking this very seriously and we are seeing them creep through into stage races. No one likes riding a super-stiff aero bike for 100 miles. It’s also a great bike for serious riders who can’t or don’t like an aero position.

One of the big changes occurring on bikes in this category is the rapid adoption of disc brakes. Discs offer increased stopping power, better all-weather performance and lower maintenance. Disc brakes really suit endurance and sportive bikes as these are the sort of bikes likely to encounter a myriad of weather and road conditions, whether in a sportive or if you simply ride year-round. Here’s a run-down of the best road bikes of 2016:
